E Coosh EEWA: The way it is
Letters to the Editor
Sasquatch, docs he or doesn't he
exist?Ifhcdocsshouldhc be hunted,
disturbed and tormented the way
people do when ever there is a ru
mor that he has been sighted or
there are evidence that he was there.
Because wheneverthcre are reports
of his presenst it attracts all sorts of
weirdocs and such trying to hunt
him down.
So far there hasn't been a turly
confirmed sighting of Big Foot, but
there are all sorts of rumors of him
being in certain areas. Foot prints
have been castcd in various parts of
trtecountry.butnoonc really knows
how the tracks were made. Even
here in Warm Springs foot prints
have been seen and castcd by the
investigators and there are photos here at SpilyayTymoo of the foot prints.
If he docs exist a creature approximately 8 to 10 feet in height, weighing
about 800 pounds must very elusive to keep out of sight, although there
have been all sorts of stories where people heve seen the Creature yet there
have been no photos of "Big Fool"
In my mind I kind of believe there might be a creature out there some
where, but I've yet to see the real evidence and thats "Big Foot,"
himselfThere are groups who have been on the hunt for Big Foot foryears
and have traveled from place to place where signs of Big Foot have been
reported. There have been documentary's and film of Big Foot but the film
was so blurry that it was hard to see just what he looked like. The film was
takenofhim inNorthemCahfomia where itshowshim walking away from
the camera to where some folks say that was just a hoax. There are stories
where people have come face to face with the monster. I should say
Creature, but fail to give complete discription of him.
From the discription of Sasquatch, of size and weight and stuff, he must
be very tactful to keep out of sight from everyone all these years. It also
appears that he tries to mind his own business and has not bothered anyone
that I've heard about so far.
So should the public hunt hem down if he does exist, or just leave him
alone? He hasn't done any harm to anyone except scare the dickens out of
people through stories. We should just leave him alone and when the time
comes he will emerge. Nigh! !
, : . What were you doing twenty five years ago? Well some people were at
the Famous "Woodstock'Rock Concert inNew York State, where people
gathered by the thousands to hear the live music of bands at that rock
festival.
It is pretty hard to pin down just what many people were doing twenty
five years ago. At that time the world was in termoil, as fighting was at its
peak in Vietnam. The war many thought we had no right to be envolved
in.
A big demonstration at Kent State College where college students were
killed, demonstrations at the Capitol in D.C., with signs saying, "Hell No,
We Won't Go." and the burning of draft cards. Some of the worst battles
were being fought in the jungles of Vietnam, battles as Hamburger Hill,
Bien Hoa, Quang Tri, Khe Sanh, Pleiku to name a few. Even though all
these things were happening WoodStock went on to become a very famous
rock concert, where everything was sort of free and at will of how people
beheaved and carried oa The weather was not cooperative as it rained and
soaked the festivel attendees. Here in Oregon there was the Mciver State
Park Rock Festival , that appeared to be a mini Wookstock to me.
And today twenty five years later the silver anniversary of Woodstock
was held in the State of New York, where hundreds of thousands were on
hand for the affair. Again the rains came to soak the fans as they were ankle
deep in mud during the festivel. Just at this Rock Concert there were no
demonstration of any wars or the burning of draft cards. Well looking back
to those twenty five years, it has been pretty interesting. Some people call
them the, "Good Old Day's." AHH-NAH-CHI-TOON! ! !

There was this guy who took some peoples advice, they said Arizona

There was this large family that was finally able to move into a more
spacious home. An Uncle asked his Nephew. "How do you like your new
house?"
"just fine," replied the lad. "My brother and I have our own rooms, and
so do my sisters. But poor Mom, she's still stuck in the same room with
Dad." YIKES

The wife said to her husband at a buffet dinner. "That's the third time

TBS to present Indian series
TL - A ' l . f i t . . - - .
The Native Americans
documentary debuts on TBS
Superstation, Before the first
Europeans sailed west across the
Atlantic, every corner of North
America was alive with indigenous
peoples. For more than 1,000
generations, 500 tribes of Native
Americans, each with a unique
language and culture, existed in what
is now the United States. Now, for
the first time, the stories of these
diverse nations-from their origins
through the devastation wrought by
European contact-are told in their
own words and through their own
eyes in THE NATIVE
AMERICANS, a landmark six-hour,
multi-part documentary premiering
in October on TBS Superstation. The
documentary will premiere October
10, 11, and 13, 1994.
THE NATIVE AMERICANS is
divided into six segments, each
focusing on a different geographic
section of the United States, the

We're worshipping together
To the editor,
Hello from Pastor Rick. I have
heard over the years a question and a
statement that has come to me time to
time. The statement: I don't want to
go to church and be told what to
do...the question: You're from that
church on the campus, what do you
do??? Well, to both question and
statement, we the Presbyterian
Church are a group of tribal members
and married into the tribe folks who
come together to pool our worship
together of God. And to share with
each other the truths that God gives
to each of us in our prayers and
through the bible. As Pastor I do not
tell anyone what to do... most folks in
Warm Springs will not put up with
being told. But being shown, or to
share, or to reveal a great truth that is
uplifting. That is the way of the Jesus
of the Bible. Telling things about life
and then to live by the. So, it sounds
simple and you are right it is simple.
To come together and a response to
the statement. . . ., .....
, . It is mid-month, of August, school
extended
the day both Valerie and I are
available when you are to discuss
what you believe will reduce
substance abuse in our community.
Some community members have
wom a lot of hats in the past and have
considerable insight to share. Others
may have a specific interest that can
contribute to our understanding.
Regardless what your hours, we d
like to hear from you. Over the next
12 months we'll listen and develop
community-based ways to reduce
substance abuse. Together, we can
make a difference in our community.
